    The Omnibus Oregon Wild and Scenic Rivers Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100-
557) of October 28, 1988, designated the Crooked River, Segment B, 
Oregon, as a National Wild and Scenic River, to be administered by the 
Secretary of the Interior. Segment B was described as: ``the 8-mile 
segment from Bowman Dam to dry Creek as a recreational river.''
    A proposed boundary for the Crooked Wild and Scenic River, Segment 
B, was published in the Federal Register on Monday, December 11, 1989 
(54 FR 50825). The proposed administrative boundary was also 
transmitted to Congress on January 2, 1990. The boundary began at the 
Bowman Dam and extended downstream for 8 miles.
    The Crooked River Collaborative Water Security and Jobs Act of 2014 
(Pub. L. 113-244) amended the proposed boundary for the Crooked Wild 
and Scenic River, Segment B, by describing it as: ``The 7.75-mile 
segment from a point \1/4\-mile downstream from the center crest of the 
Bowman Dam, as a recreational river.'' As specified by law, the final 
boundary becomes effective 90 days after transmittal to Congress, which 
occurred on October 14, 2015.
